Benefits of technology

[0017]One advantage of the invention is a liquid crystal composition that contains a polymerizable compound (or a polymer thereof) and a polar compound, and can achieve vertical alignment of liquid crystal molecules by action of the above compounds. Another advantage is a liquid crystal composition satisfying at least one of characteristics such as a high maximum temperature of a nematic phase, a low minimum temperature of the nematic phase, small viscosity, suitable optical anisotropy, large positive dielectric anisotropy, large specific resistance, high stability to ultraviolet light, high stability to heat and a large elastic constant. Another advantage is a liquid crystal composition having a suitable balance regarding at least two of the characteristics. Another advantage is a liquid crystal display device including such a composition. Another advantage is an AM device having characteristics such as a short response time, a large voltage holding ratio, a low threshold voltage, a large contrast ratio and a long service life.

Problems solved by technology

Large dielectric anisotropy in the composition contributes to a low threshold voltage, small electric power consumption and a large contrast ratio in the device.
In the case where the stability is high, the device has a long service life.
Further, in a device having no alignment film, a process of forming the alignment film is unnecessary.

example 1

[0218]To composition (M1), polar compound (PC-1) was added at a proportion of 5% by weight, and polymerizable compound (RM-1) was added at a proportion of 0.5% by weight. The resulting mixture was injected, on a hot stage at 100° C., into a device having no alignment film in which a distance (cell gap) between two glass substrates was 4.0 micrometers. A polymerizable compound was polymerized by irradiating the device with ultraviolet light (28J) using an ultra-high pressure mercury lamp USH-250-BY (made by Ushio, Inc.). The device was set to a polarizing microscope in which a polarizer is arranged perpendicularly to an analyzer, and the device is irradiated with light from below and presence or absence of light leakage was observed. When liquid crystal molecules were sufficiently aligned to prevent light from passing through the device, vertical alignment was judged as “good.” When light that had passed through the device was observed, the vertical alignment was represented as “poor...

[0219]A device having no alignment film was prepared by using a mixture of a composition, a polar compound and a polymerizable compound. Presence or absence of light leakage was observed in a manner similar to Example 1. The results were summarized in Table 4.
